View
View was an American literary and art magazine published from 1940 to 1947 by artist and writer Charles Henri Ford and writer and film critic P arker Tyler. It is best known for introducing Surrealism to the American public. View featured cover designs by renowned artists with the highly stylised typography of Tyler along with their art. It attracted contributions from artists like Pablo Picasso, Paul Klee, Fernand Léger, Georgia O'Keeffe, Man Ray, Joan Miró, Alexander Calder, Isamu Noguchi, Marc Chagall, René Magritte and Jean Dubuffet.
In celebration of its legacy, we’ve extended an invitation to eighteen artists, to create their own interpretations of the iconic View cover.
